A lot of survivors of human trafficking and exploitation have no or little education. Many have dropped out of school early or even never attended, they cannot read and write or know how to do maths.  Education gives victims power to make a change in their life, to make them understand that their past doesn’t define them and to not be depended on other people. Education is an asset that nobody can ever take away from them.  Thus, a sustainable and self-determined lifestyle is ensured and the vicious cycle of poverty and violence is broken!

The projector would help the organisation to intensify its education component of its rehabilitation approach and therby enhance the sustainability of the rehabilitation of survivors:  Some residents of the shelter were trafficked at a very young age, education therefore never played a major role in their lives and therefore some survivors cannot read and write. S-CAPE offers each resident an individual programme tailored to their specific needs, so that they are empowered and well equipped for the future. A crucial aspect of the restoration process includes empowering and equipping each resident with skills and opportunities. The organization provides weekly skills development workshops as well as individualized training such as English classes, where residents learn how to read and write or how to create their own CV. S-CAPE does this so that each resident may be equipped to find a job, start a business, or continue with schooling to be able to function independently and have hope for a better future. 
Meanwhile, there are larger learning groups and the learning materials can no longer cover the needs of the group size. The purchase of a projector would offer the team and the residents much important teaching and learning opportunities.  It would be possible to be up to date with technology e.g. for using PowerPoint and to also make it easier for external volunteers to provide their training.

Your donation allows S-Cape to buy a video projector and screen, which will much improve the teaching and learning conditions for the S-Cape team and survivors. It will be much easier to organise learning groups that also stimulate peer to peer learning. Furthermore, it will also be easier for external volunteers to get involved, as it is easier for them to deliver lessons and lectures.

1200,- EURO

This is the price for a technically sound video projector in South Africa.

If we do not reach the donation goal, S-CAPE will receive all donations collected by the end of the campaign. S-CAPE will approach other sponsors to co-fund the video projector.

In this case, too, S-CAPE receives all the donations collected and is thus a contribution to the program financing.

Since its opening in 2010,  S-CAPE has cared for 100 survivors. Survivors usually participate in the programs for 2 to 3 years.
